Description
Who is Britt Boutros-Ghali?
Is a world-class artist following the tradition of the abstract expressionist giants, such as Helen Frankenthaler, Joan Mitchell, and Franz Kline.
Britt was born in 1937 in Svolvaer, in the Northern part of Norway, where the saturation of light in the summer was juxtaposed by the lack thereof in winter. She endured the harsh weather and daunting pressure of the Second World War. This emotional backdrop provided a fertile landscape for her bursting, colorful, and emotional work.
Britt has spent the last five decades living and working in Egypt where she is an integral part of the country's artistic community. Her art, characterized by vibrant colors and large-scale energetic paintings, draws inspiration from Egypt's rich and exotic culture. Employing "action painting", her work embodies a sense of spontaneity and creativity.
The physicality of Britt's work is evident through her seasoned and competent use of materials — the subject and outcome are determined through methodical structure, yet spontaneous in the outcome, hence allowing for the nature of the materials and her use of them to unfold and tell their mysteries.
Today, Britt divides her time between Cairo and Agami, maintaining studios in both locations. Her residence and studio in Agami, situated west of Alexandria along Egypt's northern coast, reflect her deep affection for the region. The artist compound is a living piece of art, infused with intricately crafted mosaics and murals. Local artists, collectors, and individuals with a penchant for the unique often come together to gather at this inspiring space.
Exhibitions and recognitions
Britt has been exhibited worldwide since her first exhibition in Paris in 1962 and is held in many public and private collections. In 1996, she received the prestigious St. Olav's Order, Norway's highest artistic honor, from King Haakon for her cultural and artistic contributions. In 2023, she received a Lifetime Achievement Award for Women in the Arts from the Egyptian government, a significant recognition in her adopted homeland that contributed to the recent surge in her work’s prices.
